“No need to be anxious, take your time and say it out.” Ning Cheng said in a gruff voice to comfort him, thinking about the magnificent Liu Fanglin turning into this state now, he also found it a little hard to believe.
After taking Ning Cheng’s Yuan Qi Pill and Antidote Pill, and seeing Ning Cheng, Liu Fanglin felt much better, even her spirit was much more settled than before.
“Back then, after you gave me two Renewing Heavenly Ripple Bone Pills, I used one of the pills to get rid of my poison. Together with my other senior sister, the two of us lurked for several months and finally got our enemy struck with the striated bone poison ……”
“Wait.” Ning Cheng abruptly interrupted Liu Fanglin, “You said that you let your enemy be poisoned with the Bone Tattoo Poison. It wouldn’t be Dan Hui Sheng Houtian, would it?”
Liu Fanglin hurriedly shook her head, “I have great respect for Lord Sheng, moreover I know he is your close friend, how could I have poisoned him? My enemy’s name is Cai Cheng. The one who went with me to take revenge was also one of my best sisters, her name was Zong Ting. Her enemy is the same as mine, that Cai Cheng ……”
Speaking of this, Liu Fanglin’s face grew paler and paler, “I didn’t expect or know why from Ting would recognize the thief as her father and lurk with me for a few months, and after getting Cai Cheng poisoned, she actually made a move on me ……”
Ning Cheng frowned slightly, “That’s not recognizing a thief as a father either, she should have had her heart set on you as well, what treasures you had on you that attracted her.”
Liu Fanglin shook her head, “No, I fled after she cut off one of my arms. Later I heard the news that she was with Cai Cheng. Then later, I heard about the poisoning of Lord Sung Hou Tianhui, and I was sorry for Lord Sung Hou Tianhui.”
There was no need for Liu Fanglin to explain in detail, Ning Cheng understood completely.
Liu Fanglin had indeed poisoned Cai Cheng, and later on, from Ting had backstabbed Liu Fanglin and snatched Liu Fanglin’s ring. From Ting used the other antidote pill in Liu Fanglin’s ring that she had snatched away to help Cai Cheng with the poison. Then the tattooed bone poison in Liu Fanglin’s ring flowed out and finally Sheng Houtian was struck.
Ning Cheng waved his hand, “I can’t blame you for this matter, I have also solved the poison of Lord Sheng Guild, tell me about what happened to you after that.”
Liu Fanglin’s face recovered some more as she continued. “After I escaped, I tried to find you. By then you were no longer heard from, and by this time I was having health problems. My blood was inexplicably swept away by the void, and the striated bone poison that had been lifted, reappeared in my body, but I was never able to die. Every day an inexplicable voice in my soul called out for me to worship a vague deity.”
“And then?” Yan Ji on the other side couldn’t help but ask too. She was also very worried.
Liu Fanglin gave an envious glance at Yan Ji who was standing beside Ning Cheng and said, “I guessed that it should be the problem with that grey stone tablet, then I desperately rushed into the Burial Shadow Blue Sands again, even if I had to die, I didn’t want to continue suffering from this torment.”
“Then how did you get out?” Ning Cheng’s brows were slightly furrowed. He knew how terrifying the Burial Shadow Blue Sands were. Even with his strength and base cards, he had almost fallen in the Burial Shadow Blue Sand back then. If Liu Fanglin entered the Burying Shadow Blue Sand with serious injuries, she would really be in a bad way.
“I saw Qi XIII Xing in the Burial Shadow Blue Sands. It was as if he was possessed and ran madly in a certain fixed direction. I called out to him, and he didn’t answer. But I couldn’t catch up with him. I knew that Qi XIII was your best friend, and I thought it was something I should tell you. I was careful and it took me several years before this quit the Blue Sands of Burial Shadows.
My body was getting weaker and weaker. My cultivation level was getting worse and worse, and it was only until not long ago that I learned that you had become a Daoist Monarch, and that you had led the formation masters of the Tai Su Realm to complete the arrangement of the Great Boundary Protection Formation.” When Liu Fanglin said this, a bright light also flashed in her eyes, Ning Cheng was a Dao Monarch, but a friend of hers.
Even if she was useless, she had made a very remarkable friend.
Ning Cheng’s heart tightened, he knew that Qi XIII had gone to the Tai Su Ruins, hadn’t he gone to search for the Tai Su Divine Thunder? Why had he gone to the Burial Shadow Blue Sands?
“When did this happen?” Ning Cheng asked gruffly, he had known many people in the Tai Su Realm, and even more who called each other friends. However, there were not many true friends, and Qi XIII Xing was his true friend.
If something happened to Qi XIII Xing, he definitely had to go and save it.
“Sixteen years ago ……”
Liu Fanglin’s words caused Ning Cheng’s heart to sink, sixteen years ago, he was afraid that he was still on his way to Calvary Mountain. Besides, sixteen years ago, Qi XIII Xing appeared in the Burial Shadow Blue Sands and did not look very well, could he really be safe and sound now?
“I’ll go to the Burying Shadow Blue Sands now.” Ning Cheng quickly made up his mind. Qi Thirteen Stars was trapped in the Burying Shadow Blue Sands, he would definitely have to go there.
“I will go with you.” Liu Fanglin said at once.
Ning Cheng nodded and agreed to Liu Fanglin’s words. Liu Fanglin had been drained of her blood and soul by the grey monolith of the Burial Shadow Blue Sands, so she had to go there personally.
“Your cultivation level is too weak, stay in my True Spirit World and recuperate.”
“I’ll stay with you in the True Spirit World.” Yan Ji hurriedly said, she definitely had to go with Ning Cheng, although she was a Daoist, she really could not be of much help in a place like the Burying Shadow Blue Sands.
……
Before Ning Cheng had even returned to the Heavenly Su Sacred City, he received another shocking news, that Feng SiChen was likely to come to the Tai Su Realm, Ning Cheng hurriedly increased his speed and arrived at the Tai Su Dao Court.
There were already several people waiting at the Tai Su Dao Court, the Du Xuan Ancient Clan Patriarch Li Feng, the Nine Turning Sacred Dao Pond Patriarch Na Dai Fu and Sheng Hou Tian and the Dan Society Mixed Saint Emperor Bei Cai Man were also present.
“Daoist Sovereign Ning, the Boundless Palace Feng Si Trace has really come to my Tai Su Realm.” As soon as Ning Cheng returned to the Dao Court, Na Dai Fu said.
Ning Cheng said in a deep voice, “At this time, my Tai Su Realm’s boundary protection formation is intact, and although the strongest people are not as strong as the clouds, dealing with his one Boundless Palace is nothing. Who was the first to pass on this news?”
That Dai Fu said once again, “It was my Dao Ancestor of the Nine Turning Sacred Dao Pond who got this news because she had left the Tai Su Realm. She passed this news back to my Nine Turning Sacred Dao Pond, and I immediately came to the Dao Court. It was rumoured that not only had that Feng SiChen come to my Tai Su Realm first, he had also invited friends from all walks of life and had people converge on the periphery of the Tai Su Realm. Although Feng SiChen did not explicitly say so, but that meaning seems to want to divide up my Tai Su Realm once and for all.”
Ning Cheng laughed coldly, with Feng SiChen alone, contacting some rabble and wanting to divide up the Tai Su Realm, his Feng SiChen’s ass was almost whiter than others.
Li Feng sighed, “It’s a good thing that we have finished setting up our great boundary protection formation and have also set up the Tai Su Dao Court, otherwise, this time it would really be unthinkable.”
Ning Cheng also had some fears in his heart, fortunately he had done these things in time. If the Tai Su Realm had remained the same as before, even if the Nine Turning Sacred Dao Pond had gotten the news, I was afraid that it would not have been able to effectively stop the many locusts from rushing into the Tai Su Realm.
With the urbane nature of those great sects each sweeping the snow from their doors, they definitely wouldn’t have put in all their efforts to deal with these foreign cultivators. The Tai Su Realm was already in tatters, so what could be done if it was looted some more?
My Dao ancestor of the Nine Turning Sacred Dao Pond passed on the message, “Daoist Ning has done these two things very well, be it setting up the Great Boundary Protection Formation or establishing the Dao Court. She also left a message that when Feng Si-chan comes to the Tai Su Realm, she will return to strike as well.”
“Thank you, Senior Shi.” Ning Cheng stood up and thanked her.
Even though there was a hundred thousand miles difference between a Daoist Dao and a Daoist Ancestor, in the Tai Su Realm, they all called their clan’s Daoist Daoist powerhouse a Daoist Ancestor.
“Leiting pillar, immediately issue the Dao Court Danger Order in the name of the Tai Su Dao Court. The Tai Su Realm is facing an outside invasion, gather the respective war capable powerhouses of the major sects, as well as all the scattered cultivator powerhouses.” After Ning Cheng thanked Na Dai Fu, he issued the first Dao Court Danger Order since the establishment of the Tai Su Dao Court.
The Dao Court Orders of the Tai Su Dao Court had been issued in many ways, and those Dao Court Orders were all rules and regulations, some moral codes that the cultivators of the Tai Su Realm had to abide by. The issuance of these Dao Court Orders was authorised by Ning Cheng to the First Court Pillar, Li Feng. According to the rules previously set by the Tai Su Dao Court, Li Feng had full authority to issue them. But it was the first time that the Dao Court Dangerous Orders, which gathered the power of the entire Tai Su Realm, had been issued.
Even if the four marks of Feng were about to come to the Tai Su Realm, even if the four marks of Feng had not yet arrived, Ning Cheng, as the Daoist Sovereign of the Tai Su Dao Court, could not go to Burying Shadow Blue Sands at this time. He had to stay behind, consolidate the strength of the Tai Su Realm, and then fire up Feng SiChen.
……
Since the establishment of the Tai Su Dao Court, the entire Tai Su Realm’s ethos had turned for the better. The kind of killings and exterminations that could be seen everywhere before now only happened covertly. And in the event of an unfair bloodshed, one can go directly to the Tai Su Daoist Court to complain.
Even though Ning Cheng was not in the Dao Court, the Dao Court did countless things. The Dao Court of Tai Su did not levy resources from the heads of the major sects, nor did it strip those scattered cultivators of their resources. There were countless Dan and Weapon Buildings and other business models under the Tai Su Dao Court. On top of that, there is the income from entering and leaving the Tai Su Realm. With these alone, the Tai Su Daoist Court was sufficient to gain a foothold in the Tai Su Realm.
It was also because of what the Tai Su Daoist Court had done in these few short months that the cultivators of the Tai Su Realm had quickly returned to their hearts. Now that the Tai Su Daoist Court had issued the Daoist Court Dangerous Order, almost all the cultivators who had received the news were heading to the Heavenly Vegetation Holy City.
The Tai Su Realm was at least a place where there was a Dao Court, and it had just established the Tai Su Protective Array, and there were still people who were not open-minded enough to want to divide up the Tai Su Realm, which was almost like looking for death.
The forces gathered by Feng Si-Chen were still scattered in all directions of the vast void. But the forces of the Tai Su Realm had already begun to gather, and the many evanescent lights were heading in only one direction, that of the Heavenly Su Holy City.
Ten days had passed, and the Tiansu Holy City was already filled with powerful people. Even if the Heavenly Su Holy City was large, it could not hold so many people.
Countless temporary cave mansions were laid out all over the outskirts of the Heavenly Su Holy City. These cave mansions were multiplying every day, and if there was no Tai Su Dao Court to control these things, it would be enough to overwhelm the Tian Su Sacred City with these mad influx of cultivators.
After a month had passed, Ning Cheng did not continue waiting, he knew that there were still people heading here, but he could not wait any longer.
This time, he did not hold a hall meeting in the Allied Hall of the Tai Su Dao Court, but instead, he set up a void Allied Hall outside the Tian Su Sacred City to face all the cultivators who came to the hall meeting of the Tai Su Dao Court.
